Is there a way to stop/block/disable assignment comments from students & parents? I use comments one way (from me) and expect students to see me personally with assignment questions.
@carrie_marusich Unfortunately, there is no way to limit students from making comments on assignments. It looks like there are a couple feature ideas for this that you may want to follow:

Yup, if you hover over those two links from @james_whalley's above response, you'll see in part of the URL that those are coming from the previous Ideas space in the Canvas Community site.

So, we'll need to wait for the Community team to reveal their new process for Ideas, but I'm not exactly sure when that will happen.
Hope this helps in some way.

Is it possible to change the system-wide notification defaults for a hosted Canvas instance? Since I can't find a way to do it, nor any reference to doing it, I'm assuming not but wanted to make sure before I give that as an answer.
Hi everyone, I had a teacher reach out with an odd (and concerning) LockDown Browser issue and wanted to see if others have experienced something similar. A student was taking a quiz using Respondus LockDown Browser on a Chromebook 300e Yoga G4 (8GB), a 2‑in‑1 device that can flip into tablet mode. During the active quiz,…
Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
